So I go on Twitter and see that 'Patrick O'Brien' is trending.

I think excitedly 'Why would the master of naval fiction be trending and why have they misspelt his name?'

Silly me. It turns out it's just someone who's called Ian Wright a 'Cųnt coon monkey ni99er'. Disappointing. :-(

Poor old Wrighty. You'd have thought he'd be used to all that sort of thing by this time, wouldn't you. Never took him for the sensitive sort anyway.

Just goes to show, you never can tell. As you say, disappointing :-(

United, by the sound of things.

Still, poor form even for them.

Hmm.. yes. Footballistically-speaking, he never did have much luck there, did he. Still, chap needs to man up.

Constantly hanging around with urban media-types can't help, I suppose; the money's probably good but they all love their racism far too much.
